Impeaching Donald Trump: Tell Your Representative to Move H. Res 353 Forward!

Hi all, to read this email on the web, click here.

We have some exciting news and an urgent action item. Today, Rep. Shri Thanedar (D, MI-13) read H. Res 353, Impeaching Donald John Trump, President of the United States, for high crimes and misdemeanors on the House floor and invoked Rule IX to force every single Representative to vote on them.

What does this mean? Within two legislative days, the House must call a Yes or No vote, or take some other action to prevent a vote, such as tabling the motion. No matter what happens, every rep will go on record with a clear Yes or No regarding their support for impeachment.

This is the moment Citizens' Impeachment has been working towards since April. Today's action is to TELL YOUR REP that you support impeachment and want them to move these Articles of Impeachment forward.

🚨 Here are the instructions for TODAY’S action:

PLEASE READ EVERY INSTRUCTION CAREFULLY. If you have any questions, PLEASE ASK by replying to this email. We will try to answer your questions as fast as we can.

We are asking you to take TWO actions as soon as possible.

✅ Call your Representative
✅ Email your Representative

We are doing both because some offices prefer emails, some prefer phone calls, and we want to make sure every single office gets this message: It’s time to move Articles of Impeachment forward.

There are THREE important steps below. Don’t forget step #3, which is to click the button at the bottom of the email once you’ve contacted your representatives, so we can track how many messages were sent! This helps us hold your representative accountable.

Step 1: Call Your Representative

Call your representative using the method you’re used to. If you’ve never called your rep before, dial 202-224-3121 for the Capitol Switchboard and request your representative’s office (Rep. <<REPLAST>>)
Leave the following message:

Hi there, my name is <<First Name>> <<Last Name>>, and I'm a constituent of Rep. <<REPLAST>>.

I am calling because I strongly support the impeachment of Donald Trump and because I want to see Rep. <<REPLAST>> vote to move forward H. Res 353, Impeaching Donald J. Trump. Donald Trump has committed impeachable offenses and should be removed from office. Now is the moment for Rep. <<REPLAST>> to take a public position honoring their oath of office and defending our country against tyranny.

Thank you so much for your time.

Step 2: Send an Email to Your Representative

Go to your Representative’s website: <<REPCONTACT>>
Fill out the form. The form may ask for your zip code or your full address. This information must be your actual address - if you use an address that does not fall within the Representative’s district, you will not be able to send them an email.
Check “yes, I would like a response” if that is an option. You will also request a response in the body of the letter.
NEXT, copy and paste the following message into the contact form. If you choose to add your own words, make sure that you are making a DIRECT STATEMENT that you support moving these Articles of Impeachment forward.
Click submit!

EMAIL TEXT

Hi there, my name is <<First Name>> <<Last Name>>, and I'm a constituent of Rep. <<REPLAST>>.

I am emailing because I strongly support impeaching Donald Trump and want to see Rep. <<REPLAST>> vote in favor of moving forward H. RES. 353, Impeaching Donald J. Trump. Trump's unconstitutional actions and crimes must be addressed through impeachment, the legal avenue available to us through the U.S. Constitution to remove a tyrant from office.

A majority of citizens support impeachment. I urge you to support H. RES. 353 and to make a strong public statement in support of the impeachment of Donald Trump. Americans of all parties are paying attention and will remember your position when they are voting in the mid-term elections.

I request a response to this letter.

<<First Name>> <<Last Name>>

Step 3: Let us know you took action!

This is important for holding our representatives accountable, rather than having our messages disappear into a black hole. When you click the button below, it will mark you as having completed the actions. We can then share exactly how many people reached out to a specific representative asking them to support impeachment, with the media, and with the representatives themselves.

I told my representative to advance H. Res 353, Impeaching Donald J. Trump!

🚨Above all, if you receive a response from your representative, forward it directly to organizer@citizensimpeachment.com.

Closing thoughts

We are watching the progress of this Rule IX action closely. Whether or not it passes and gets referred on to the Senate for a trial, simply calling the vote itself is major progress towards our goal. Calling a vote on impeachment can be repeated as many times as necessary until we succeed in removing Trump from office.

The vote happening this week is a direct result of your advocacy. Our one-month-old movement directly inspired Rep. Thanedar to file Articles of Impeachment, and we have been providing support and guidance as the process moves forward.

Our next phase of action will be building the list of co-sponsors for these articles. The momentum is building, and we know Congress - and President Trump - can hear us.

Keep raising your voice in favor of impeachment. It's working.

Thank you for your patriotism! No tyrants. No kings. Not ever.
